Teaching :
I’ve taught JOUR301 – the intro news literacy course, ENGL307, beginning skills, ENGL308 intermediate skills, Medical Writing (ENGL409) and Critical Writing (ENGL409) many times.
Each link should include the syllabus, course schedule and examples of student work. The documents will download and the online, video and multimedia links should go right to the site.
I obtained press credentials for three students to attend the 2016 Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, and I’ve included a separate section for those stories.
Student Success: These are just a few examples, and links to their work. My students now cover NASA for The Atlantic, science for VOX, basketball for Sports Illustrated , international news for ABC, community issues for The News Journal and are editors for the York Dispatch and Business Insider.
